The evolutionary stability of cross-sex, cross-trait genetic covariances. [PDF]

open access: yesEvolution; international journal of organic evolution, 2015
Although knowledge of the selective agents behind the evolution of sexual dimorphism has advanced considerably in recent years, we still lack a clear understanding of the evolutionary durability of cross-sex genetic covariances that often constrain its evolution.

Optimizing bulk segregant analysis of drug resistance using Plasmodium falciparum genetic crosses conducted in humanized mice

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Classical malaria parasite genetic crosses involve isolation, genotyping, and phenotyping of progeny parasites, which is time consuming and laborious.

A Statistical Variance Components Framework for Mapping Imprinted Quantitative Trait Locus in Experimental Crosses

open access: yesJournal of Probability and Statistics, 2009
Current methods for mapping imprinted quantitative trait locus (iQTL) with inbred line crosses assume fixed QTL effects. When an iQTL segregates in experimental line crosses, combining different line crosses with similar genetic background can improve ...

The Neurospora crassa Standard Oak Ridge Background Exhibits Atypically Efficient Meiotic Silencing by Unpaired DNA

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2019
Meiotic silencing by unpaired DNA (MSUD), an RNAi-mediated gene silencing process, is efficient in crosses made in the Neurospora crassa standard Oak Ridge (OR) genetic background.

Genetic draft and valley crossing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
ABSTRACTLiving systems are characterized by complex adaptations which require multiple coordinated mutations in order to function. Empirical studies of fitness landscapes that result from the many possible mutations in a gene region reveal many fitness peaks and valleys that connect them.

Comparison of north carolina designs for the study of genetic variances in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus (L.) Moench)

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Plant Breeding, 2016
The progenies developed through North Carolina Designs (NCD I, II and III) in F2 populations of okra viz., HRB-55 x Kamini (cross 1) and BO-13 x Parbhani Kranti (cross 2) were used to study the genetic variances.

Detecting Major Genetic Loci Controlling Phenotypic Variability in Experimental Crosses

open access: yesGenetics, 2011
Traditional methods for detecting genes that affect complex diseases in humans or animal models, milk production in livestock, or other traits of interest, have asked whether variation in genotype produces a change in that trait’s average value.

Generation mean analysis for grain yield and its components in popcorn

open access: yesOpen Agriculture, 2018
Knowledge about genetic composition of a character helps plant breeders to plan their breeding programs. Grain yield and related traits are very important in maize breeding programs.
